We often hear that the number of network-connected devices continues to grow exponentially. By 2020, just a few months from now, Gartner indicates that almost 20.4 billion IoT devices will be connected. For many organizations, this represents nothing less than a technological tsunami. Obviously, without seeing what these devices are, and knowing what they are doing in your network in real-time, we cannot control let alone secure them.

Can Network Access Control (NAC) help to manage IoT?

Ideally, Network Access Control solutions should be tasked with securing the network edge including IoT. Yet traditional, legacy approaches to NAC are difficult to deploy and sustain due to the complexity of both the technology and its cost.

In this webinar, team Genians will explain why we need next-gen NAC capabilities to secure our evolving networks effectively and deploy the right technology for your cyber threat landscape.

AGENDA:

• The benefits of a Network Access Control solution
• NAC Architecture Comparison (RADIUS, SNMP, MIRROR/SPAN, IN-LINE, SENSOR)
• Problems with traditional NAC (Deployment, Maintenance, Cost)
• The requirements of Next-Gen NAC
